MarketingBoost Automation Booster is a monthly subscription, charged on a recurring cycle
Yes, MarketingBoost Automation Booster is a monthly subscription. You are charged once per month on the same date each billing cycle, and the charge continues until you cancel. The exact amount and billing date depend on the plan you choose and when you first sign up.
The subscription renews automatically each month unless you actively cancel it. If you do not cancel before your next billing date, your payment method will be charged again. This is standard for most software and automation tools, but it means you need to track your renewal date if you want to avoid unexpected charges.
Key Takeaways
- MarketingBoost Automation Booster charges you once per month on a recurring basis until you cancel the subscription.
- Your billing date stays the same each month — if you sign up on the 15th, you will be charged on the 15th of every following month.
- Cancellation must happen before your next billing date to stop the recurring charge; cancelling after you are charged does not reverse that month's payment.
- You can update or remove your payment method at any time through your account settings, which will prevent future charges if you do not cancel formally.
When your monthly charge hits and how to find your billing date
Your first charge occurs when you complete signup. After that, you are charged on the same calendar date each month. If you sign up on March 8th, your next charge will be April 8th, then May 8th, and so on. If a month has fewer days than your billing date (for example, February when your date is the 31st), the charge typically processes on the last day of that month.
You can find your exact billing date by logging into your MarketingBoost account and checking your subscription or billing settings. Most accounts show the next scheduled charge date, the amount, and the payment method on file. Set a calendar reminder a few days before that date so you know when to expect the charge on your bank or credit card statement.
How to cancel before the next charge
Cancellation must be completed before your billing date to stop the next monthly charge. The exact cancellation window varies — some subscriptions allow cancellation up until 11:59 p.m. on the day before your charge, while others require cancellation several days in advance. Check MarketingBoost's cancellation policy or contact their support team to confirm the cutoff time for your account.
To cancel, log into your account, navigate to subscription or billing settings, and look for a "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage Subscription" button. Some services require you to contact support directly to cancel. Once you cancel, you should receive a confirmation email. Keep that email as proof in case a charge still appears on your statement.
What happens if you are charged after you thought you cancelled
If a charge appears after you cancelled, first check your cancellation confirmation email to verify the date you cancelled. If you cancelled before your billing date, the charge should not have gone through — contact MarketingBoost support with your confirmation email and the unwanted charge details. Provide your account number, the transaction date, and the amount charged.
Most companies will issue a refund if you can show you cancelled in time. Request the refund in writing through your account or via email so you have a record of the request. If MarketingBoost does not respond within 5 to 7 business days, you can dispute the charge with your bank or credit card company as an unauthorized transaction, though disputing should be your last step after giving the company a chance to refund you directly.
Pausing versus cancelling your subscription
Some subscription services offer a pause or suspension option instead of full cancellation. Pausing temporarily stops your monthly charges without closing your account, so you keep your settings, data, and account history. When you resume, everything is still there. Cancellation, by contrast, closes your account and may delete your data depending on MarketingBoost's retention policy.
If you think you might return to MarketingBoost later, ask support whether a pause option is available. A pause is often easier to restart than re-signing up and reconfiguring your account from scratch. If no pause exists, cancellation is your only option to stop charges.
Updating or removing your payment method to prevent future charges
If you want to stop charges without formally cancelling, you can remove your payment method from your account. Without a valid card or bank account on file, the subscription cannot charge you, though MarketingBoost may suspend your access or send payment failure notices. This is not the same as cancelling — the subscription technically remains active, and you may face account suspension or service interruption.
Removing your payment method is a workaround, not a proper cancellation. The cleaner approach is to cancel the subscription directly so both you and MarketingBoost have a clear record that the service has ended. If you remove your payment method and later want to reactivate, you will need to add a new payment method and may face a gap in service.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change my billing date to a different day of the month?
Most subscription services do not allow you to change your billing date after signup. If you need a different date, you may need to cancel and re-sign up on your preferred date. Contact MarketingBoost support first to ask whether they can manually adjust your billing date — some companies will do this as a one-time accommodation.
What if my card is declined when MarketingBoost tries to charge me?
If your payment method is declined, MarketingBoost typically retries the charge over several days. If all retries fail, your account may be suspended or cancelled automatically. Update your payment method immediately if you see a failed payment notice. Some companies send email warnings before suspending your account, so check your inbox and spam folder.
Do I get a refund if I cancel mid-month?
No. Monthly subscriptions are not prorated — you pay for the full month regardless of when you cancel. If you cancel on the 20th of a 30-day billing cycle, you do not receive a refund for the remaining 10 days. You simply lose access to the service after your current billing period ends.
Can I downgrade to a cheaper plan instead of cancelling?
Many subscription services allow plan downgrades, which may result in a credit toward your next bill if you are moving to a lower-priced tier. Check your account settings for a "Change Plan" or "Downgrade" option. If you downgrade mid-cycle, the credit or charge difference depends on MarketingBoost's policy — ask support for the exact calculation before you downgrade.
